baked pears porridge

another morning, another porridge… gee, does that sound funny to you, too? well, this one was delicious as it was healthy. i roasted a pear in the oven and spiced things up with cinnamon, maple syrup and dates.

preheat the oven to 220 degrees. place the pears in an ovenproof form, sprinkle with the cinnamon and brown sugar and bake for about 15 to 20 minutes, until slightly golden around the edges. in the meantime cook the oats in the milk and water for a few minutes on low heat, and then cover and let steep. ladle the porridge in bowls, top with the dates and the maple syrup. serve the pears separately.
